Got a fax on Saturday night:
I faxed back:Dave,
Um...send all the art to me, and I'll get it to a good home (smiley emoji).

I thought one of them said in the phone interview posted yesterday as the weekly update, that Elephant was their first choice, and the actual offered cover could go to the other guy. Seems to be a win-win?
OR, if you have extra AKIMBO blanks, do two new homages, send one to each of them with full sized prints of the other four homages, signed/personalized/and with a secret message just for the recipient and keep the original three (because as the song goes, "breaking up is hard to do..."). Along with the comics with the covers like originally planned?
OR or, auction all three through Heritage and send a third of the take for the intended give-away cover to Al and a third to Jason and you keep all the rest?
OR Or or... I dunno. This is a sticky wicket, and I'm kinda glad it's not really MY sticky wicket, per se...
In the immortal words of Billy Crystal in The Princess Bride, "have fun storming the castle!"

(Or, cut the covers in half diagonally, and tape half of one cover to half of the other cover and send a Frankenstein to each of them signed "it worked for King Solomon...Dave Sim"...)
More as this continues...
Breaking News!
James Banderas-Smith sent out:
Hey everyone! The Kickstarter is already doing very well! Thanks for all of your support! Today I got word from Kitchener Ontario, that Dave Sim will be contributing yet another variant cover! This will be $20 and limited to 50 copies! First come, first served! Now this may affect your buying decisions, so feel free to adjust your orders, I completely understand! The new cover is already available as an add on, but there isn't an image as of yet! Thank you for your patience and thank you once again!
So if you go RIGHT HERE, you can try and get you one of the other forty-nine (I'ma getting one! And you can have it when you pry it from my cold. Dead. Hands.)
We don't have an image, but it'll be in the vein of these:
Okay, if you still got a couple of bucks tomorrow, Jen would like a word...
Next Time: GIVE JEN MONEY!!!
